Tamales Lilianas is a popular restaurant known for its large and thick tamales made with masa. The service is praised as great, though the place can get crowded and loud, with limited parking. While some customers find the tamales disappointing due to a lack of meat, others appreciate the friendly service at this bustling establishment.
Recent reviews mention the Corn and Pineapple Tamale as very sweet but not overly so, with a moist masa. The Red Tamale was described as having a very thick masa that was hard to swallow without a drink, while the Green Tamale was more moist. The Pineapple Tamale was a favorite, praised for its sweetness and moisture.
Customers also highlight the cleanliness of the restaurant and the perfect ambiance. Though the food is generally satisfying, some reviewers note that the tamales could benefit from more sauce, as they have been a bit dry lately. The restaurant also offers authentic Mexican dishes, such as the popular Bean Gordita, and traditional drinks like Café de la Olla and Champurrado.
